The free-hand "concept" sketch, to the left,  loosely illustrates the floor plan concept for the 1st floor level.  A double fireplace is centered in an octagonal Family Room and adjacent Dining Room.  The main entry door is accented and sheltered by a gabled portico roofline which is one with the main roofline.  Flying-bracketed overhangs visually shelter and protect all door entryways, bay window and covered porches. Sidewalls will be clad with white cedar shingles woven continuously around the curved brackets, column pedestals and base-flares.
